Health care in the United States is in flux today as never before.
Although no one can predict with certainty its direction in the
coming years, it’s clear that companies experienced in delivering
savings and improving the plan member experience will be among
the winners. CVS Caremark already has programs in place that
do an outstanding job of controlling costs for payors and patients
while promoting better health outcomes. Moreover, we are well
positioned to take our efforts to the next level. Our pharmacy
benefits management business enjoys a long-standing reputation
for excellence. Add to that our nearly unmatched retail presence,
clinical strengths, and specialty leadership, and you can see why
CVS Caremark is ready for the changes – and challenges – that
lie ahead…whatever they may be.
